[Bug 89291] Re: Kubuntu Feisty does not ask for bluetooth pin. Pinhelpers seem not to work
Hi,
Here is a small procedure I have written that allows pairing bluetooth
telephone with Kubuntu, that allows using the bluetooth phone as a
remote control for Kubuntu and describes how to exchange files with a
bluetooth phone using bluetooth protocol
1. Make sure /usr/sbin/hcid is running by entering ps -aux|grep hci
2. Make sure bluetooth service is started by entering sudo
/etc/init.d/bluetooth restart in the konsole terminal
3. Enter hcitool scan in konsole terminal to retrieve the hardware address
AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF of the bluetooth device you wish to pair with Kubuntu
4. Start /usr/bin/bluetooth-applet using the konsole terminal or a startup
script
5. right click on bluetooth-applet icon, choose preferences. On first tab,
choose mode of operation: visible and connectable for other devices. In
second tab, enable all bluetooth services. In third tab, enable automatically
authorize incoming requests
5. Enter hidd --connect AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF in konsole terminal using the
bluetooth hardware address you found instead. When connecting to certain Sony
Ericsson bluetooth phones, this command will allow you to use the phone as a
remote control for the laptop, handy when doing a presentation
6. The bluetooth-applet will ask you for the pin and the mobile device pairs up
correctly!
7. In Krusader: enter obex://[AA:BB:CC:DD:EE:FF]/ to transfer files between
laptop and phone
Bluetooth transfer speeds on my pc are around 30 to 40 kilobytes/second
8. if file transfers still do not work for you, make sure your hcid.conf file
looks like mine, reboot your
pc, and try again.
Here is my working /etc/bluetooth/hcid.conf file configuration:
#
# HCI daemon configuration file.
#
# HCId options
options {
# Automatically initialize new devices
autoinit yes;
# Security Manager mode
# none - Security manager disabled
# auto - Use local PIN for incoming connections
# user - Always ask user for a PIN
#
security auto;
# Pairing mode
# none - Pairing disabled
# multi - Allow pairing with already paired devices
# once - Pair once and deny successive attempts

# PIN helper
pin_helper /usr/bin/passkey-agent;
# D-Bus PIN helper
/usr/bin/bluez-pin --dbus;
# Default PIN code for incoming connections
passkey 1234;
}
# Default settings for HCI devices
device {
# Local device name
# %d - device id
# %h - host name

[Bug 89291] Re: Kubuntu Feisty does not ask for bluetooth pin. Pinhelpers seem not to work
I have been doing a little more experimenting and noticed that the bluetooth stack on my Sony Ericsson can crash from time to time. So if my procedure for accessing your phone files via OBEX does not work anymore all of a sudden, don't blame it on the Linux bluetooth stack, blame it on the phone's bluetooth stack. In that case, I just turn off the phone, turn it on again and voila. the OBEX connection works again. Now if I only could get Linux to run on the phone too ;-) I put /usr/bin/bluetooth-applet in my procedure, because bluetooth pairing using /usr/bin/kbluetooth on Kubuntu Gutsy Gibbon did not work for me One more thing: if my procedure for pairing the bluetooth phone works for you, you should also be able to use wammu (frontend gui for gammu) to make a backup of all your phonecalls and phonebook. -- Kubuntu Feisty does not ask for bluetooth pin.
